Free agent defenseman Willie Mitchell met with the Capitals at Kettler Capitals Iceplex Tuesday, his agent Mike Liut said, adding that there isn't an established timetable for when the 33-year-old will make a decision on what team to join. CSN's Corey Masisak first reported, via Twitter that Mitchell was at KCI.
The Capitals are one of four teams Mitchell has visited with, Liut said. According to a Sportsnet report, the Los Angeles Kings, San Jose Sharks and Vancouver Canucks are the others.
"It's been a summer that's gone according to plan for Willie," Liut said. "This has been the schedule he set out with to give himself the best chance with his rehabilitation, and all of the teams that have shown interest, some of which he's met with, have been very supportive."
